LINCOLN, Neb. (KMTV) — A grand jury investigating the death of an inmate who fell 11 times in his cell has found no criminal wrongdoing by officials.
The Lincoln Journal Star reports that Tony D. Perez died last summer at a Lincoln hospital of blunt force head injuries.
The jury report says he suffered three falls at the prison department's diagnostic center in Lincoln. He was taken to the hospital and declared brain-dead on Aug. 5. A review of security video showed Perez had fallen 11 times in his cell at the center.
